Naringenin, a flavanone inhibits the proliferation of cerebrally implanted C6 glioma cells in rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Tumor cells are able to survive and proliferate in spite of their increased oxidative stress. This was taken as a hint for the implication of oxidants/antioxidants in the proliferation of glial-tumor cells. In the present study, an anti-proliferative effect of Naringenin, an antioxidant against cerebrally implanted C6 glioma cells in rats has been investigated. The status of lipid peroxidation/antioxidants, expressions of protein kinase C, nuclear factor κB, cyclin D1, cyclin dependent kinase 4, proliferating cell nuclear antigen, vascular endothelial growth factor, argyophillic nucleolar organizing regions and histopathology of brain tissues of control and experimental rats were analyzed. On supplementation of naringenin (50mg/kg BW for 30 days) to glioma induced rats, there was a reduction in lipid peroxidation with an increased antioxidant status. There was a significant decrease in the expressions of protein kinase C, nuclear factor κB, cyclin D1 and cyclin dependent kinase 4 on naringenin treatment. Further, the drug could modulate the glial-tumor cell proliferation as evidenced from the histopathological findings, argyophillic nucleolar organizing regions staining, proliferating cell nuclear antigen and vascular endothelial growth factor immunostaining. The findings suggest that naringenin could underlie the inhibition of glial tumor cell proliferation in C6 glioma models of rat. 相似文献

Advancing age is a major risk factor for coronary artery disease. Endothelial dysfunction accompanied by increased oxidative stress and inflammation with aging may predispose older arteries to greater ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Because coronary artery ischemia cannot be induced safely, the effects of age and habitual endurance exercise on endothelial I/R injury have not been determined in humans. Using the brachial artery as a surrogate model of the coronary arteries, endothelial function, assessed by brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD), was measured before and after 20 min of continuous forearm occlusion in young sedentary (n = 10, 24 ± 2 yr) and middle-aged (n = 9, 48 ± 2 yr) sedentary adults to gain insight into the effects of primary aging on endothelial I/R injury. Young (n = 9, 25 ± 1 yr) and middle-aged endurance-trained (n = 9, 50 ± 2 yr) adults were also studied to determine whether habitual exercise provides protection from I/R injury. Fifteen minutes after ischemic injury, FMD decreased significantly by 37% in young sedentary, 35% in young endurance-trained, 68% in middle-aged sedentary, and 50% in middle-aged endurance-trained subjects. FMD returned to baseline levels within 30 min in young sedentary and endurance-trained subjects but remained depressed in middle-aged sedentary and endurance-trained subjects. Circulating markers of antioxidant capacity and inflammation were not related to FMD. In conclusion, advancing age is associated with a greater magnitude and delayed recovery from endothelial I/R injury in humans. Habitual endurance exercise may provide partial protection to the endothelium against this form of I/R injury with advancing age. 相似文献

The objective of the study was to collect repeated, low-stress blood samples from the ulnar vein of chickens required for pharmacokinetic studies or hormonal assays. The study used 5 apparently healthy, unsexed, commercial broiler chickens about 6 weeks old and weighing 1.7-1.9 kg for serial sampling of blood. The study prepared the birds prior to cannulation and penetrated the catheter through the skin and into the lumen of the ulnar vein. The study successfully carried out serial blood samplings in 4 of 5 cannulated birds. Heparin (10%) solution maintained patency and prevented blood clot formation inside the cannula. However, the study found repeated clotting occurring in 1 bird. Cannula failed to maintain patency; the study could not carry out blood sampling properly, which was attributed to air embolism that might have occurred during catheter manipulation or repeated filling of cannula with heparin solution. The study observed no hematoma or inflammation at the site of cannulation. Owing to the advantages and to facilitate compliance with nonhuman animal welfare, this technique seems simple and efficient, allowing adoption for serial blood collection in chickens. 相似文献

A study of genetic diversity in Pongamia pinnata representing 33 candidate plus trees (CPT) was undertaken in five agro-ecological zones of Southern Peninsular India. Eleven primer combinations generated 532 bands with an average of 48 bands per primer combination. E-ACG/M-GCC showed the highest polymorphism of 98.80 %. E-ACG/M-GCC, E-CAA/M-CTG, and E-CAG/M-GTG with higher polymorphic information, marker index, and resolving power were found to be effective in detecting unique bands. Nei's gene diversity and Shannon's indices of 0.159 and 0.247, respectively, indicated the presence of high gene diversity in southern dry and transition zones of Karnataka. The inter-population differentiation between zones (G ST) was 0.296. The level of gene flow (Nm) estimated was 1.34. Analysis of molecular variance indicated that 44.78 % of variance occurred within the provenance when compared to variations among agro-ecological zones (22.22 %) and among provenances within zones (33 %). Based on un-weighted pair group method using arithmetic averages method, the pongamia accessions were grouped into three major clusters and four sub-groups depending on their geographical locations. The diverse CPT identified in this study could be selected and used for tree breeding, germplasm conservation, and biofuel program in India and other tropical countries. 相似文献
